I forgot to send in my picture of nattō! My JTE counterpart surprised me one day with a small styrofoam container he pulled out of the fridge, and after showing me how to get it to the right consistency (stirring vigorously with chopsticks), he told me to “enjoy” the contents. It tasted vaguely like old coffee, but was actually pretty good with the accompanying packet of spicy mustard.

You're invited to the JET30 Reunion, a three-day reunion & conference for JET alumni, family & friends held in Washington, DC at the beautiful Omni Shoreham Hotel. The event will feature speakers, special events, fun for the whole family and plenty of time to see old friends and make new ones.

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.

Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.
